Please Disregard the above

Like a true Storey, he is late. He is technically home, but still inside Fiona.We have shown him round his room and his toys and tried to tempt him out with chocolates and promises of hugs and the ability to play with said toys, doesn't seem to have worked.So everyone we are still at condition yellow...no red...hehehe... we are on high alert, people have been calling me when they have had missed calls thinking that, I am now a Father... so you can see the kind of alert people are on.On another computorial note, I have a rack, it is 42ru of computer mounting glory, I have rack-mounted my 24-port hub, and put a shelf in for the modem and routers, and another shelf for the current computers, of which I am buying a rack-mountable case for at least one of them.On yet another note, I upgraded one of the old computers I was given and re-installed win95 (goddamn this is a blast from the past), and got an old game that I used to love and installed it; Rocket Jockey!Wooohoo, I love this game, now if only someone would make an open source multiplayer lan/net game it would be the ultimate game. Oh yeah this new computers name, Delorean as it is a blast from the past...get it :PHeheh on a more nuptial note Fiona just said today to get the little guy out she is going to have: chilli powder, eggs, and curry powder... and asparagus just to annoy me.Peace out all.

I am the proxy bitch

Back when I worked at Teletech, one of the guys there Leon got a promotion to the network support staff, they quickly had him learn the proxy config, and he became the administrator for the proxy.Being that I knew him and emailed him, I would email him directly and ask him to un-proxy pages. Quickly I developed a nick-name for him... "the proxy bitch"As apt as it is, I now admin the proxy for one of our clients, and you know what, I don't mind being the proxy bitch. I don't mind, denying and allowing access to pages, it is somewhat fun (and I suppose voyeuristic) to see what people want access to or want access to blocked.So I am the proxy bitch and I am happy to be. Now to setup Mr.Teeny at home with squid so I can be a proxy bitch at home :) I even joked to Fiona that I would block eBay, which I jokingly did some months ago at our router.Peace Out all, especially us Proxy Bitches.
